Nice clean cabin in a great location. Sunrise over Lake Melissa sitting on the dock across the street was beautiful. Great time of year to visit because traffic was minimal. We would certainly stay here again!

We had a wonderful couple’s weekend in Detroit Lakes! This 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home was exceptionally clean, comfortable, and perfectly appointed for our getaway.The location directly across the street from Lake Melissa was ideal. It put us just minutes away from everything on our itinerary, including hunting for the Detroit Lakes trolls and browsing the local flea market.Communication with the property managers was prompt, friendly, and seamless from check-in to check-out. We highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing Detroit Lakes stay!

We had an excellent stay. The cabin location is really nice. The street isn’t super busy, and it’s a lovely neighborhood. It was ungodly hot during our stay so we did spend most of our stay indoors. The amenities were well thought out. We especially loved some of the vintage books, and the very nice smart TV. Everything is updated and functional. The hosts were very easy to work with and were great at communicating. It’s absolutely somewhere we would stay at in the future!

About the host

Host profile image
We enjoy our home right next door to this cabin. We have lived in this area for over 20 years and love this neighborhood, the easy access to Lake Melissa, and all the amenities that the Detroit Lakes area has to offer. We are new to hosting a rental and are very excited to provide a place where people can come and relax and enjoy all the amenities and beauty that the lakes area provide!

Why they chose this property

We enjoy living so close to the lake but also having a little more privacy provided with not being right on the lake. The view of the lake is fabulous, the wooded area behind the neighborhood provides privacy, and easy access to the lake, shopping, dining, and other amenities is a bonus!

What makes this property unique

We recently purchased this cabin. We tried to furnish it the way we would want it for comfort and relaxation during a lake vacation. It has a fabulous view of the lake from inside the cabin and also from the patio area. It is a comfortable, cozy space inside and out making it possible to create more Lake Melissa memories.
